Seriously, you really do not know what fuel you are getting from the filling station, it would be really interesting to see who gets what depending on what part of the country they are in.

I am sure optimax. 100ron and BP ultimate has to be what it says on the tin, but don't fill up on BP regular fuel and then be surprised if it is esso or Jet fuel.

Yes, as it is pumped from the same refinery. The distribution network is relatively simple and the forecourts are indepently run from production. Hence my previous comments questioning when the addatives are introduced.
I keep a bottle of Millers addatives in my car and add it with every fill up, that way it doesn't matter too much where I fill up.
